Peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise,
Trouble,
Or hard work.
It is to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.
It is the peace of God that transcends all understanding.
And in this place of peace,
There is no knowledge needed,
And the questions of my heart no longer need answers.
This is the peace of God.
And I feel this peace in stillness.
And I feel this peace in silence.
And I choose to take no thought captive.
And I seek for nothing outside of myself.
For this peace comes from the purity within,
Found in the presence of now.
And if God is a reflection of peace,
And I am a reflection of God,
What greater gift that I get to experience this blissful state of inner being.
For I am a vessel that holds God's peace.
And like a mirror,
I reflect the perfect light of peace back unto Him.
And through this energy exchange,
I radiate peace.
I embody this peace.
I revel in this peace.
Therefore,
I will go out in joy,
And be led forth in peace.
And the mountains and the hills will burst into song before me.
And all the trees of the field will clap their hands.
I become a witness to this sweet surrender.
And I watch and I observe.
And I take delight in knowing.
That the whole universe has my back.
I will not fall or fail by the force of a blow.
For this peace in me grows mighty roots of strength,
Grounded and stable when the wind blows.
The kingdom of heaven is within me.
And it is within me where this peace calls home.
I will not let my heart be troubled.
Neither will I let it be afraid.
My peace God leaves to me.
My peace God gives to me.
And He does not give to me as the world gives.
For He will keep me in perfect peace when my mind is stayed on Him.
God is not a God of disorder,
But of peace.
God is not the author of confusion.
So if I align myself with the ways of the Lord,
The fruit of my alignment is peace.
I open my heart to the Creator,
And I let the Lord of peace Himself have His way in me.
As I trust in the God of hope,
I am filled with joy and peace.
In this place of peace,
I am free from disturbance.
And I bathe in the soft light of tranquility.
And I unite with songs of praise.
My stance is one of confidence and strength.
And I trust in the silence of my being.
As I bask in this peace,
I become one with stillness.
And my entire being lays down in rest.
I walk in the garden of peace.
And I stand here with presence.
Time does not exist.
I am not waiting,
Nor am I doing.
Peace is not something I set a goal to achieve.
Peace is my natural state of being.
It is always with me.
It walks with me.
It talks with me.
It guides me.
It delights in me.
And it resides in me.
When I am at peace,
I am one with the Creator of all that is.
I am at peace with the world and all around me.
And with peace comes love.
And with love comes joy.
And in this state of being,
My cup is full and overflows.
In this peace,
I don't feel the need to strive.
I don't feel the need to do.
I am led and prompted as I need to move.
And I know that when I am in this peace,
I am living my highest truth.
I don't try to carry myself with ease.
I just naturally do.
Like the warmth of the sun on my face,
I receive the glow.
My senses are awakened and heightened.
My spirit enlivened.
Everything is vibrant.
Rich in color and life.
It smells potent and awakens my soul.
And the taste of life is pure and sweet.
Nature has a magical movement.
And we commune in silent conversation.
The hustle of life becomes a blurred vision of the past.
One that I no longer see clearly.
And peace becomes my compass for the vision set before me.
I walk in peace.
I talk in peace.
And I lay down in this sweet peace.
For there is no person,
Place,
Or thing that can satisfy my soul.
Like the sweet,
Life-giving gift of peace.
